Comprehensive Door Services for Tunbridge Wells

In-depth technical repairs for all door types.

A broken door is more than an inconvenience; it is a security risk and a potential violation of fire safety regulations. In Tunbridge Wells, we provide a comprehensive diagnostic and repair service for commercial aluminium doors, shopfront glass, and heavy-duty entrance systems. Our engineers are trained to handle complex mechanical failures in floor springs, transom closers, and automatic operators.

Urgent Response for Tunbridge Wells Businesses

A jammed door in a high-traffic retail environment can mean lost revenue. Our Tunbridge Wells emergency team prioritises commercial call-outs, carrying extensive stock of universal closers, locks, and hinges to effect a first-time fix. We handle smashed glass shopfronts and failed automatic doors with the urgency your business requires.

Specialist Aluminium Shopfront Services

Our Tunbridge Wells technicians are experts in the geometry of aluminium doors. We don't just force a door shut; we realign the entire leaf, adjust the transom closer tension, and ensure the lock bolt engages perfectly. We service both narrow stile and wide stile aluminium doors commonly found in Tunbridge Wells's high streets and offices.

Hydraulic Door Control Solutions

A slamming door is a liability lawsuit waiting to happen. Our engineers in Tunbridge Wells carry out precise hydraulic adjustments to latching speed and closing force (BS EN 1154 compliance). If a unit has lost pressure (oil leakage), we replace it immediately with a compatible unit from Axim, Alpro, or Ryobi to ensure safe, controlled closing.

Emergency Glazing in Tunbridge Wells

Whether due to vandalism or accident, shattered glass leaves your property exposed. We offer emergency boarding services in Tunbridge Wells followed by rapid re-glazing. All our glass installations comply with BS 6206 / BS EN 12600 impact safety standards.

BS EN 16005 Safety Compliance

All automatic doors in Tunbridge Wells must adhere to strict safety regulations. We conduct safety audits, checking closing forces (max 150N) and ensuring safety sensors cover all crush zones. If your door is non-compliant, we can retrofit monitored safety sensors to bring it up to legal standards.

Frequently Asked Questions in Tunbridge Wells

Q: My shop door slams shut dangerously fast. Can you fix it?
A: Yes, this is usually a sign of a failed hydraulic damper in the transom closer or floor spring. In Tunbridge Wells, we can often adjust the valve to regulate speed, but if oil has leaked, we will replace the unit with a new Dorma or Axim closer to ensure safety.

Q: Do you repair automatic sliding doors for shops in Tunbridge Wells?
A: Absolutely. We repair motor gearboxes, drive belts, and carriage wheels. We also test and replace safety beams and microwave radar sensors to ensure your door meets BS EN 16005 standards.

Q: My aluminium door scrapes the floor. What is the cause?
A: This is 'door drop', common in Tunbridge Wells. It can be caused by the glass slipping (needing 'toeing and heeling') or a worn bottom pivot. We can realign the door to ensure smooth clearance and proper locking.

Q: Can you replace the glass in my commercial door the same day?
A: For standard laminated safety glass, we often can. For toughened glass (which requires furnace processing), we will secure your property with boarding or a laminated pane immediately and return to fit the custom unit.
